Hanes Mill Rd. Suite 300 Winston Salem, NC 27105 Attached please find a Pre -Construction Notification for a Nationwide Permit 29 Verification for impacts associated with a proposed residential development on the subject property, referred to as Planter's Walk. The site is located on Paul Pope Road in Davidson County, North Carolina. Impacts associated with this request include 147 linear feet of new, permanent impacts to jurisdictional non -wetland Waters of the US and 0.046 acres of new, permanent impacts to jurisdictional wetlands Waters of the US. Previously authorized impacts associated with this project include 52 linear feet of permanent impacts to non -wetland Waters of the US and 0.096 acres of permanent impacts to wetlands Waters of the US. We are also requesting a 401 WQC from NC DWR for the above referenced impacts. A site visit was conducted by yourselves and W&W staff on 01/31/18. The revised approximate depiction of aquatic resources based upon the results of this site visit is included with this notification. Project Purpose and Need The purpose of the proposed project is to continue construction of a residential subdivision to meet the growing demand for housing within the region and to fulfill the economic expectations of the existing and on -going project. Proiect Description The proposed project consists of the proposed development, appurtenant parking and infrastructure, connection to an existing on -site sanitary sewer system, and connection to Joe Moore Road. New impacts include 147 linear feet of permanent impacts to jurisdictional tributaries and 0.046 acres of permanent impacts to jurisdictional wetlands, which are necessary for two road crossings in order to access high ground and to meet connectivity requirements per local ordinance. The site will be constructed under an approved sediment and erosion control plan in order to minimize risk of materials incidental to construction activities being transported into downstream receiving waters. Avoidance and Minimization The project has been carefully designed to minimize impacts to aquatic resources to the maximum extent practicable. Headwalls as well as riprap dissipators will be utilized on both the upstream and Christopher Huysman WETLANDS & WATERS, INC. Tamp Bandy 170 Dew Drop Road 4108 LB Propst Drive Sparta, NC 28675 Conover, NC 28613 336.406.0906 828.302.3437 Chris.Huysman@gmail.com JTampBandy@gmail.com downstream portions of both proposed road crossings in order minimize stream disturbance. The first crossing location has been co -located in a portion of the tributary that contains 24 feet of an existing 24" culvert crossing in order to minimize disturbance. Temporary impacts for pump -around will be located within the proposed riprap dissipator areas such that work can be conducted in the dry. Compensatory Mitigation In order to mitigate for unavoidable losses, the applicant proposes to provide compensatory mitigation in the form of credit purchase from the DMS In -Lieu Fee program. The acceptance letter from DMS is provided with this request. The applicant proposes the following mitigation ratios to corresponding impacts: • Based upon an NC SAM evaluation of Tributary 4 and a Medium rating for USACE/AII streams, the applicant proposes a 1.5:1 mitigation ratio for the new culvert impacts only, totaling 77 linear feet (Impacts S2 & S3). As the existing 24 linear feet of culvert is assumed to be previously authorized under NWP 26, mitigation is not proposed for this impact. • New impacts to Tributary 5 (Impact S5) for the culvert crossing are proposed at a 2:1 mitigation ratio. • As the riprap energy dissipators will be pressed into the stream bed at existing elevation in order to maintain aquatic life passage, compensatory mitigation is not proposed for riprap impacts (Impacts S1, S4 & S6). • As the new impacts (0.046 acres) to jurisdictional wetlands are considered forested, compensatory mitigation at a 2:1 ratio is proposed for these impacts. • All previously authorized and completed impacts (0.096 acres of wetlands and 52 LF of tributary) are proposed at a 1:1 mitigation ratio, as this was the commonly accepted ratio at the time of authorization.

Pleasant Garden, NC 27313 RE: Planter's Walk Dear Perry Isner: Secretary Susi H. Hamilton NCNHDE-4733 The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above. A query of the NCNHP database, based on the project area mapped with your request, indicates that there are no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there may be no documentation of natural heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have been surveyed. The results of this query should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists. In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our records. The attached 'Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists and is included for reference. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed area within a one -mile radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report. Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission. The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve (DNP), Registered Heritage Area (RHA), Clean Water Management Trust Fund (CWMTF) easement, or Federally -listed species are documented near the project area. If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance, please contact Rodney A. Butler at rodney.butler@ncdcr.aov or 919.707.8603.

DEQ Project No. 20171590. Dear Mr. Isner, Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resource Commission (NCWRC) have reviewed the subject information. Comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Clean Water Act of 1977 (as amended) and Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.). On behalf of Shugart Management, Inc., Wetlands & Waters, Inc. has submitted an Pre -Construction Notification application for Planter's Walk Residential Development located at Paul Pope Road and east of Joe Moore Road in Thomasville, Davidson County, North Carolina (N.C.). Approximately 30 acres of forest will be cleared for the second phase of the project. Construction of culverts for crossing two unnamed tributaries of Kennedy Mill Creek will result in permanent impacts to 238 linear feet of streams, which does not include impacts from the first phase of the project. Kennedy Mill Creek in the Yadkin — Pee Dee River basin is classified as a Class C stream by the N.C. Division of Water Resources (NCDWR). We do not have records of federal or state -protected species adjacent to or within the site. The lack of records from the site does not imply or confirm the absence of federal or state -listed species or state Species of Greatest Conservation Need listed in the 2015 State Wildlife Action Plan (http://www.ncwildlife.org/plan). An on -site survey is the only definitive means to determine if the proposed project would impact rare, threatened, or endangered species. We are concerned with the amount of impacts to the unnamed tributaries to Kennedy Mill Creek. We offer the following recommendations to minimize impacts to aquatic and terrestrial wildlife resources. 1. Maintain a minimum 100-foot undisturbed, native, forested buffer along perennial streams, and a minimum 50-foot buffer along intermittent streams and wetlands. Maintaining undisturbed, forested buffers along these areas will minimize impacts to aquatic and terrestrial wildlife resources, water quality, and aquatic habitat both within and downstream of the project area.

Consider avoiding or further minimizing the amount of impacts to the streams. Use bridges for all permanent roadway crossings of streams and associated wetlands to eliminate the need to fill and culvert, where practicable. If culverts must be used, the culvert should be designed to allow aquatic life passage. 3. Limit impervious surface to less than 10% or use stormwater control measures to mimic the hydrograph consistent with an impervious coverage of less than 10%. An increase in impervious surfaces from development alters the hydrology of a watershed and affects water quality. With reduced infiltration, runoff rates increase and cause stream levels to increase more quickly and result in more frequent flood events. Such increased flood frequency can worsen streambank erosion, particularly if riparian conditions are poor. Efforts to reduce the amount of imperviousness and control stormwater are important to reduce the hydrologic impacts of increased development and the effects on aquatic and terrestrial wildlife habitat. 4. Use non-invasive native species and Low Impact Development (LID) technology in landscaping. Using LID technology in landscaping will not only help maintain the predevelopment hydrologic regime, but also enhance the aesthetic and habitat value of the site. LID techniques include permeable pavement and bioretention areas that can collect stormwater from driveways and parking areas. Additional alternatives include narrower roads, swales versus curbs/gutters and permeable surfaces such as turf stone, brick, and cobblestone. Compared to conventional developments, implementing appropriate LID techniques can be more cost-effective, provide space -saving advantages, reduce runoff, and protect water quality (Roseen et al. 2011). Also, NCWRC's Green Growth Toolbox provides information on nature -friendly planning (htip://www.ncwildl ife.org/Conserving/Programs/GreenGrowthToolbox.aspx). We recommend using green construction techniques to improve water, waste, and energy efficiency. The following five techniques have the greatest impact on sustainable building: prefabricating materials in controlled environments, construction waste management, lean manufacturing to reduce energy, and environmentally -friendly material selection (https://www.forconstr-uctioLipros.com/business/article/I 2068798/five-techniques-for-sustainable- building-construction). 6. Re -seed disturbed areas with native seed mixtures or plants that are beneficial to wildlife. Using native species instead of ornamentals should reduce the need for water, fertilizers and pesticides. In open areas, consider planting native, wildflower seed mixes that will create pollinator habitat within the project boundary. A list of wildlife -friendly, native plants is available upon request. Avoid using invasive, non-native plants (i.e., lespedeza, Bermudagrass, or tall fescue) in seed mixtures or landscaping plants htip://www.ncwildflower.org/plant galleries/invasives_list). 7. Sediment and erosion control measures should use advanced methods and installed prior to any land -disturbing activity. The use of biodegradable and wildlife -friendly sediment and erosion control devices is strongly recommended. Silt fencing, fiber rolls and/or other products should have loose -weave netting that is made of natural fiber materials with movable joints between the vertical and horizontal twines. Silt fencing that has been reinforced with plastic or metal mesh should be avoided as it impedes the movement of terrestrial wildlife species. Excessive silt and sediment loads can have detrimental effects on aquatic resources including destruction of spawning habitat, suffocation of eggs, and clogging of gills.
